We particularly welcome proposals from local providers that can mobilise services while maintaining coherent geographies and strong alignment with the communities they serve. Proposals should reflect the principles set out in NHS England guidance on neighbourhood working, including delivery through integrated, place-based teams serving defined populations, aligned to “natural communities and boundaries that are recognisable to local people.”

Please note that an expression of interest in delivering the General Medical Services (GMS) is not a tender response. An expression of interest is no indication of a commitment to participate in the tender process nor does it infer any special status on those providers who do submit an interest.
The market response to this notice will be used to inform the Commissioner’s view as to any future process to select the most suitable approach to meet its commissioning intentions. This does not commit the NHS West Yorkshire Integrated Care Board to undertake a procurement. NHS West Yorkshire Integrated Care Board has the right to withdraw this notice.

How to Read This Tender
- 1This is NOT yet a full tender — it's a 'market engagement exercise', which means the NHS is testing the water to see who's interested before they officially launch a procurement. Submitting an expression of interest doesn't commit you to anything or guarantee you'll get invited to bid later.
- 2Read 'expression of interest' carefully: the NHS says this 'is no indication of a commitment to participate in the tender process.' The NHS can withdraw this notice entirely or use your response only to decide whether to run a formal tender at all. Don't assume your interest automatically leads to a contract opportunity.
- 3The financial review mentioned has 'identified challenges' with the current operating model — this is code for 'the practice is struggling financially or operationally.' Look carefully at what 'innovative and sustainable delivery models' might mean for you: are you being asked to merge, collaborate with other practices, consolidate sites, or take on a struggling service?
- 4The NHS is 'open to a range of delivery proposals' — this is your cue to be creative. They want solutions, not just a 'we'll carry on as before' response. Think about how you'd make this work: combining with other providers, integrating into a bigger organisation, rationalising property costs, or dispersing patient lists.
- 5Watch the timeline: 9-day response window closing 21 May 2026. This is a fast turnaround for an expression of interest. You need to register on the Atamis platform quickly and have your response ready. If you struggle with Atamis, call the helpdesk immediately (0800 9956035).
Tips for Small Businesses
- As a small practice or provider, consider consortium or collaboration bids: the NHS explicitly welcomes 'provider collaboration or federation approaches.' Partnering with other local practices or a larger provider network may make you more competitive and help address the financial challenges mentioned, rather than trying to take this on alone.
- Focus your expression of interest on 'sustainability' and 'resilience' — these are the words the NHS used repeatedly. Explain concretely how you would make this practice financially stable and operationally efficient. Reference NHS England's neighbourhood working guidance in your response to show you understand the strategic direction.
- Don't assume this will be a straightforward contract — the mention of 'managed list dispersal (in full or part)' means the NHS might be willing to break up the patient list and redistribute it. If you're interested, clarify early whether you'd take the full 10,955 patients, a portion, or whether you'd integrate them into a larger model. This will shape your bid.
